Hamilton, Ph.D. Examination Committee Member Rebecca Gill, Ph.D. Graduate College Faculty Representative ii ABSTRACT United States expansion following the Mexican-American War served as the catalyst for a reinvention of American Federalism. While much of the historiography traces the accretion of sovereign power in the national government to events caused by the divisions between northern states and southern states, there is an important and understudied East to West component of the process by which sovereign boundaries changed. The American West is a legal space where the hazily defined and capacious concept of federalism received fuller form and clearer definition. During the late nineteenth century and first few years of the twentieth century, the United States modified and ultimately solidified three important relationships: (1) its relationship with Native American Tribes; (2) its relationship with territorial law and governance; and (3) its relationship to the land and natural resources. The Framers of the Constitution, including those of the Fourteenth Amendment, acknowledged Native American tribal sovereignty. The power of tribes to police themselves remained relatively undisturbed until one particular specie of intra-tribal violence attracted the attention of Anglo- American authorities – witch killings. With the sensationalization and publication of witch killings, Native Americans were introduced to the Anglo-American criminal justice system. Since that time, the United States iii has severely curtailed Native American power to police and regulate their own tribes. After the Civil War, the national government re-formulated territorial governance to assert greater control over areas of law, including common law, traditionally reserved to local sovereigns, and did so in the service of a nationalizing project. Concerned that local territorial citizens might re- assert their local laws following statehood, Congress placed increasingly stringent conditions on statehood for territories in the West. Finally, the national government asserted robust powers not only over people in the West, but also over its most valuable natural resources – minerals, timber, water, and land. Whereas the national government had initially served as something akin to a real estate sales agent for the nation, ensuring that the public domain was disposed, it adopted a different role in the West – that of a Landlord. All these changes necessitated new theories of federalism. Legal elites articulated these theories in Supreme Court cases, legal commentaries, and Congressional legislation. By the second decade of the twentieth century, the hazily defined federalism that had existed in flux had congealed. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Graduate students in history learn, at the outset of their education, to adopt a critical eye in the reading of historical scholarship. The requirement to write a dissertation, I am convinced, serves to temper and refine our critical attitude in two ways. First, it instills an appreciation of the difficulty in conducting sound research and writing well. Second, it reminds us that scholarly inquiry is a collaborative enterprise. Our research and writing is enhanced through formal processes and informal conversations. This work is far better than it would have been due to helpful feedback from generous scholars. First and foremost, David Tanenhaus is the epitome of kindness and is everything one could hope for in an advisor. He combines gentle and thoughtful commentary with a generosity of time unmatched in academia. And, based on his email response times, I believe he never sleeps. The other members of my dissertation committee have provided outstanding feedback and support: Paul Werth, Maria Raquel Casas, Dean Daniel Hamilton, and Rebecca Gill. The UNLV History community of both past and present is full of wonderful people who have helped me develop as a historian and a person: Michael Green, David Holland, Greg Hise, Colin Loader, Elspeth Whitney, William Bauer, Elizabeth Nelson, Mary Wammack, Eugene Moehring, Greg Brown, Nick Pellegrino, Jordan Watkins, Stefani Evans, and the three “Andrews” – Andy Fry, Andy Kirk and the late Andrew Bell. I would especially like to thank Heather Nepa and Annette Amdal who have not only shepherded me through this process, but whose kind words of encouragement have meant more than they realize. v I have been very fortunate to spend time as a fellow at Stanford University which has provided outstanding access for archival research. Its best assets, however, are its many great scholars. This project has benefited from the conversations I’ve had and feedback I’ve received from: Mark Storslee, Geoff Sigalet, Michael McConnell, Greg Ablavsky, Lawrence Friedman, Robert Gordon, Jonathan Geinapp, Jack Rakove and David Kennedy. Additionally, I’m grateful for thoughtful comments from Will Baude, Maeva Marcus, Barry Cushman, Lee Otis and Jason Iuliano. When I moved to Las Vegas to attend UNLV, people often asked me if I gamble. I was not sure how to answer. Although I tend to avoid casinos, I did leave a secure job in legal practice in order to pursue a graduate degree in history, a move that seemed to entail more risk than putting a quarter in a slot machine. The pursuit of this dream was risky, and would not have been possible without the support of my wife, Ashleigh, who has given me nothing but love and encouragement on this journey. Likewise, my children Malakai, Rori, and Zuri are my source of joy and serve as a constant reminder of what is truly important. Finally, I would not have been able to complete this dissertation and degree without the love and support of my parents Brice and Colleen Sorenson and my parents-in-law Mark and Alice Evans. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ................................................................................................................................................. iii Acknowledgments ................................................................................................................................. v Table of Contents ................................................................................................................................. vii List of Figures ..................................................................................................................................... viii Introduction ............................................................................................................................................ 1 Part I: E Pluribus, Duas – The Curtailment of Native American Tribal Sovereignty ........................ 23 Chapter 1: Early Anglo-American Institutional Engagement with Native Americans .................. 31 Chapter 2: Witches and Criminal Justice ........................................................................................ 49 Chapter 3: Nation to Nation? ..................................................................................................... 63 Part II: Sovereignty Subject to Veto - Western Territories ................................................................ 94 Chapter 4: Surveying the Scene ...................................................................................................

Deneen, Georgetown University The Political Companions to Great American Authors series illuminates the complex political thought of the nation’s most celebrated writers from the founding era to the present. The goals of the series are to demonstrate how American political thought is understood and represented by great Ameri- can writers and to describe how our polity’s understanding of fundamental principles such as democracy, equality, freedom, toleration, and fraternity has been influenced by these canonical authors. The series features a broad spectrum of political theorists, philoso- phers, and literary critics and scholars whose work examines classic authors and seeks to explain their continuing influence on American political, social, intellectual, and cultural life. This series reappraises esteemed American authors and evaluates their writings as lasting works of art that continue to inform and guide the American democratic experiment.

Kendall Editors’ Summary: Federalism has become a highly politicized term in envi- ronmental law, with some parties having adopted the term to signify an ideol- ogy of devolving federal authority over environmental protection back to the states. In this Article, the author argues that from the states’ perspective, the U.S. Supreme Court is using federalism both too much and too little. Too much, in striking down federal law where even the states recognize that a federal role is necessary to address a national problem. Too little, in inappropriately limit- ing state experimentation. By listening more carefully to the states, the author argues that the Court could transform its federalism jurisprudence from a source of criticism and polarization to a doctrine that should win broad support from across the political spectrum. n its current iteration, the U.S. Supreme Court’s federal- important state environmental initiatives despite consider- Iism jurisprudence presents a serious threat to environ- able ambiguity about the intent of Congress. mental protection.

  • The State of Our Federalism Michael S

    The State of Our Federalism Michael S

    The State of Our Federalism Michael S. Greve The Oldest Question of American Constitutional Law Federalism has been called “the oldest question of American constitutional law.” And so it is. Federalism was the central question of our constitutional founding. It has been a constant theme of our politics ever since, and it has been a central, highly contentious question in every critical era in our history—the Civil War and Reconstruction; the Progressive Era; the New Deal; and the Civil Rights Era. We are now living through another critical period. The country is broke, and our political institutions seem incapable of finding solutions. And as always, federalism is playing a prominent role in a heated political debate. You’ve heard the story line: an overbearing, out-of-touch, out-of-control government in Washington, D.C. has aggrandized itself and trampled state and local governments underfoot. To restore fiscal sanity and democratic government, we should restore federalism’s balance. We should respect the Tenth Amendment, return power to the states, and so bring government closer to the people. All of the Republican contenders for the presidency advocate this program, with varying degrees of enthusiasm. I agree with their analysis and prescription—up to a point. Washington has indeed assumed far too much power over local affairs. In many policy areas, decentralization would improve our policies and our politics. I also agree that our problems have a potent constitutional dimension. And yet: I will try to persuade you that our federalism problem is a great deal more complicated. “Federalism” in the sense of decentralization and state authority is not just a solution.

Atwill Director of Graduate Studies in History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines conflicting visions for natural resource use and economic development in the American South in the years between the end of the Civil War and the beginning of the Great Depression. Emancipation toppled the region’s economy and led many Southerners to try to establish a “New South” to replace their antebellum plantation society. Their task was unprecedented, and necessitated completely reimagining the economic structure of the entire region. Although most Southerners believed that the region was blessed with abundant natural resources, there were many competing ideas about how these resources should be used in order to achieve prosperity. By examining how these different visions shaped New South economic development, this dissertation reconsiders a longstanding interpretation of the postbellum American South, and provides a fresh historical perspective on the challenges of sustainable development in underdeveloped places worldwide.
